Salt
Amy Peters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I never should have let you mess with my mind
Dancing on a thin line
I can't behave and crave you at the same time
And I know you'll tell me whatever I want to hear
Nothing right, nothing real
I can't lie I still feel
Like you left a little truth in my life
I can't lie I still feel
The way you talk the way you kiss
I get, I get, I get, so hot and into it
I'm into it, you turn it on I can't resist
Yeah I love what you're saying
So go on keep saying it
I take it with a grain of salt
I ahaha I take it with a grain of salt
But if I have a taste then it's not my fault
Unintentionally I'm second guessing everything I believe
Cause lying here in your sheets, I feel alive
My sequence I stay in strides, you can't fake that kind of high
I know you'll tell me whatever I want to hear
Nothing right, nothing real
I can't lie I still feel
Like you left a little truth in my life
Maybe weird, something right something real
I can't lie I still feel
The way you talk the way you kiss
I get, I get, I get, so hot and into it
I'm into it, you turn it on I can't resist
Yeah I love what you're saying
So go on keep saying it
I take it with a grain of salt
I ahaha I take it with a grain of salt
But if I have a taste then it's not my fault
It's not my fault, not, not, not, It's not my fault, my fault, Na ah
It's not my fault, not, not, not, It's not my fault Na ah aha
The way you talk the way you kiss
I get, I get, I get, so hot and into it
I'm into it, you turn it on I can't resist
Yeah I love what you're saying
(I love what you're saying)
So go on keep saying it
(Go on keep saying it)
I take it with a grain of salt
I ahaha (It's not my fault)I take it with a grain of salt (ow)
But if I have a taste then it's not my fault
I ahaha I
I ahaha I
The lyrics of Amy Peters's song "Salt" talk about a person who is struggling to resist the temptation of love and lust for someone they know they shouldn't be involved with. The first two lines suggest that the singer is blaming their actions on boredom and alcohol, which may imply that they are not thinking straight. The singer mentions that they can't control their behavior and emotions, and they are torn between wanting this person and knowing that it's not the right thing to do. However, the person they are involved with tells them everything they want to hear, and even though they know it's not genuine, they still hold onto the small truth they've been given.
The chorus of the song, "I take it with a grain of salt," means that the singer acknowledges that what is being said to them may not be entirely true or trustworthy but still chooses to believe it to make themselves feel better. The repetition of "It's not my fault" implies that the singer is struggling to come to terms with their actions and is trying to justify them to themselves. The last line, "But if I have a taste then it's not my fault," shows that the singer is beginning to accept their actions and take responsibility for them.
